    Had a medianoche sandwich and a medalla from here. Prices very affordable. They take credit card for $10+ only. The setting is very casual and filled with locals. I liked the sandwich but wish it would have been crispy on the outside. Also, I was always under the impression medianoche sandwiches had cheese, and this one did not. Loved the medalla beer! Service friendly.

    The fried chicken and Fritas Carnes were over cooked, by a LOT. I mean not even edible as they were deep fried at least 5 minutes too long, they were as hard as a rock. The bartenders were not interested in serving us. My husband liked his burger and the fries were ok. Might try again for breakfast since they are close.

    Malta

    Awesome hole in the wall type of place. Lots of locals. You can have a drink anytime they're open. Bacardi and coke with breakfast? Sure why not! We had a malta, turkey sandwich, and scrambled eggs with fries. Very good.

    I still dream about this sandwich. Affordable, local, delicious, low maintenence. If that's what you want then this is the real deal. Unless you're really allergic to cats, because there were a few cats walking around.

    Tripleta sandwich

    Little place in Luquillo with great food and cheap prices. Steak sandwich was flavorful and juicy for $5. Can't beat that.

    Carne Frita
    Heather S.

    I ordered the carne Frita and it was delicious. The place is a dive and the bartenders aren't very attentive. But so what, slow down and enjoy hanging out and listening to the locals. The place is super cheap and at 3:00 on a Friday had a small crowd.

    We love this place. Makes us feel extremely comfortable and the owner & staff ... We love staying here in Laquillo. We come here for breakfast to start our day and then late at night for music & cocktails to end our night !

    That bird was on that table a second ago.

    Such a fun, delicious strip of about a million kiosks - perfect for eating in between beach time or…read morehunting down souvenirs to take home :) The only problem was, unless you're a local, there's just no time to try out every last one :( Parking can be tricky during busy hours, but that can't be helped unless you're willing to pay extra (I think it was $4?) to park in this special lot off to the side.

    Amazing collection of side by side eateries by the beach…read more Food: 4. Service: 4 Atmosphere: 3 Cost to worth it rating: 4 (economical meals) Opentableable: no reservations Return worthiness: yes Eve award: best chicken "taco" Highlights: - Chicken "taco": imagine if an egg roll and a taquito had a baby. Bumpy fried texture outside fully enclosed with shredded chicken that was simple yet had enough flavor. Fave thing I had at the kiosks and made the list of foods during the trip. 5 stars - Chicken empanada: similar filling but in a crunchy empenada exteriod. 4.75 stars - Pork skewer: big chunks of meat cooked well and glazed with a mellow BBQ sauce. 4 stars - So many permanent spots to choose from--over 60--over a long stretch of road. I was envisioning a set of food trucks. - Family owned - So many options even within each place - Displays at most places with their offerings behind the glass or tall picture menus on display - Simple seating with tables - Also have alcholic drinks if you want: full bars in the kiosks and other spots with mojitos or pina coladas Midlights: - Alcapurrias specialty of the area but was too dense with the plantain exterior with some ground meat inside and not as much flavor for me. 3 stars - By the beach but not right on the beach--few parking lots over - Researching ahead of time may not be accurate--looked for plain items from my son some places were supposed to have but didn't see them there Lowlights: - Hard to choose since there are so many and not sure which are the best. I had ideas going in but went with what looked good and our driver recommended. - Limited parking so may be harder on a crowded day - About an hour drive from old town San Juan so a stop if you are venturing out to beaches
